Vortex, I hope you can get the situation taken care of quickly.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Sorry, Vortex. I prefer imaginary mice, for sure.
Installing a deadbolt that's pushbutton combination instead of keyed (or as well as keyed, I guess, but I never use the key) has been a lifesaver in terms of not locking myself out. It's so freeing not have to carry keys every time I go outside.
It is probably not so well-adjusted of me to think so, sj, but that is pretty funny.
I think my weekly Tuesday conference call is canceled - chances of being done with work on time increasing...

Five years in a dorm with auto-locking doors hammered it in to me to ALWAYS have my keys when I go outside.

Yeah, I locked myself out once here and once at my old place right before I moved here, and that was impetus for me to add a keypad lock to the front door. Plus I have a garage keypad and a key hidden in there for the garage entry door (which is not a deadbolt). Adding the key deadbolt for the front door was pretty easy though, since I already had a deadbolt.

What is even happening?

I'm with askye, sj.

I'm a big fan of smart locks so that I have multiple ways of locking and unlocking doors, and I can also lock or unlock them remotely if I need to let someone in.

I think I will change one of my locks to a keypad eventually, but for now I have four new keys and two new key hiding thingies. The other two keys will go to neighbors.

I have one that links to your phone or can take a code but I haven’t gotten around to installing it yet. We have a key pad one at the cabin and it’s been a lifesaver.
Literally, come to think of it. We were able to give 911 the code this spring when my father had a crisis so the EMS team could go right in.

Having regular cat sitters as neighbors means there’s usually someone else with a key. Which has come in handy more than once. I’ll have to look into one of the above backups if/when I ever move.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Tired, as usual. I woke up around 5 for no reason(as opposed to waking up because of cat or child) but fell right asleep again.
